Traders are warning that the markets have had a different feel lately. They say it is no surprise, given the action out of our nation’s Capitol recently, but they warn you need to stay vigilant.
“So now that we’ve flipped the calendar into 2025, it started with the January report,” said Brian Splitt. “It really changed the perception of the balance sheet for corn specifically, but also for soybeans.

So the frequency of what you would say market-impacting information is really ramping up.”
Splitt says it is important to tackle any issues now. The number one thing you want to avoid is making decisions under duress.
